FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS OF BI ANGLE SHAPED SQUARE FOOTING UNDER TWO WAY ECCENTRIC LOADING
Abstract: Footing subjected to eccentric loading along two mutually perpendicular axes is quite a common field problem. Due to this bearing capacity is reduced considerably as the effective size is drastically reduced. A footing may be subjected to two-way eccentricity due to many reasons. In the case of footing subjected to one-way eccentricity the common practice is to match the centre of gravity of column loads to centre of gravity of …

Static and Dynamic Analysis on a Steel Module in a Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) Ship
Abstract: Abstract: An FPSO (Floating Production Storage and Offloading) is a floating production system that receives fluids (crude oil, hydrocarbons etc.) from a subsea reservoir and processes into oil and gas. Most FPSOs are ship-shaped, remodelled from existing cargo ships. FPSOs have been serving the offshore oil and gas industry for nearly 30 years. They have been proved to be safe and economical. A steel structure (module) in a FPSO will …
